Looks great so far! Glad to see you restoring it.

While flushing I would just use tap water from the hose, then add the distilled when you put the coolant in.

ouch! Did he have the top off when he got hit? Or did the wreck make the top do that?

Oh haha..Well you might just have to wait until the motor is back in. I wouldn't chance just trying to eyeball the fitment. More than likely you'll install it and it'll interfere with something.

Put it back up on the car temporarily and mark a place where it wont interfere with anything.

At least most of the guys with Civics will actually race...Not say "Oh I don't want to race because I might BHG..."

Oil pressure would make sense according to this. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=48 But doesn't make sense according to the connector your have pictured.

:rofl: This But really, nice find man..Pretty weird story though.

Could just be the diff is tired and needs a rebuild. Trying putting some regular old 75w90 oil with no friction modifier in it.

Sounds pretty nasty! and what he ^ said.

Great numbers! :thumbup: to you sir!

Macon here. Theres a few other Mk3's in the Macon/Warner Robins area but not sure if they're on this site. Any of y'all on ImportAtlanta?

http://www.importshowdown.com/ Anyone gonna be able to make it? I'll probably be going just to watch, since I'd rather not risk blowing a head gasket..But who knows, I might run in the RWD class.

Yes coolant runs through the ISCV and TB but I seriously doubt that it could leak into the intake through them. Are you sure you didn't connect a coolant hose to a vacuum port?

Well the car had been pushed back in the garage by the time it rained. But we didn't clean the sand up in time haha.

You'd be surprised how much valve cover gaskets can leak.

I helped a friend sand blast his engine bay in his driveway. Looked like a beach under his car the next day after it rained ;) Sand was literally 4" deep in spots!

Excellent build! I like how you got EVERYTHING coated. I noticed in the engine pics that you still have the stock filter head attached. Will you be running the stock pressure based setup or did you switch to a thermostatically controlled setup?

You sure there wasn't a tear in the diaphragm? Make sure you have quality vac lines. Cheaper silicone hose will usually get pinched closed, especially when it gets hot.

Cool. Be sure to make a vid! What psi or HP are you shooting for?
